Child support. Teen mom.

Leah from TeenMom is getting $500 a month from her ex husband , and wants more.

Does anyone else think that she is getting out of line. I, personally, think that $500 is fine. She makes much more then him, she has a DH who helps her to pay rent and utilities, food. her ex has these kids at his house often, he also feed then, getting diapers without anyone's help.

Because that's the law, unfortunately. It doesn't matter if it's 50:50 shared custody. One parent legally has to be "custodial parent" and if it's Leah, obviously, she's entirely to whatever the law says she's entitled to.

You are making quite the assumption by saying "I am obsessed" especially when it seems you pay a little more attention than me. Lol! I am basing my opinion off exactly what it's showing. I can't form an opinion on anything else because that is not what I am being shown and I dont know. Lol!

Quoting Anonymous:

Any expenses she has that pertain to the kids are considered in child support.

It amazes me that everyone watches these shows, and presumes that everything that happens every day of these girls lives are shown on air, and unedited.

You have no idea what happens when the cameras are off. You don't even know if it was made up and scripted just for drama for the show. You see the dad getting the kids. You don't see if he keeps them, or if they show it just for looks. You hear what she says she gets. You don't see the check stubs showing she receives that amount.

For all you know, she doesn't actually get anything, or he could be paying her $1200 a month.

Who cares? You are obsessed with a tv show. It's there to entertain, not tell the truth.

Her expenses shouldn't matter. That's HER choice.

She basically said her expenses were more because her and doormat Jeremy decides to buy a home together. Why is that Corey's problem?

Considering you aren't in her bank account checking out her expenses, I'd say it's not your business
